4 Claims.
This invention relates to garments of the type intended to confine, support and mold the figure and to a method of producing such garments.
More particularly it relates to garments of this character having at least a portion thereof formed of elastic material capable of stretching simultaneously in all directions, that is to say both longitudinally and transversely of the garment. Such material may conveniently bereferred to as two-way stretch-or two-way elastic material.
An important feature of the invention is the formation of a part of the two-way stretch material of the garment in such a way that stays for giving rigidity and support to portions of the garment may be incorporated without adding materially to the thickness or bulk of the garment at the points where the stays are inserted. This is accomplished by forming a longitudinally extending'welt in the fabric at each point where a 20 stay is to be used. The formation of such a welt will provide a pocket of any desired width and length into which the stay may be placed in the This not only provides an unusually neat effect but the usual bulkiness and attendant discomfort resulting from the formation of stay pockets by the-addition of tapes and the like to one face of the finished fabric is avoided. Even more important is the production of a stay pocket in this way which 30 will not interfere with the free longitudinal stretch of the two-way stretch material. If the pocket were formed in the way ordinarily employed in connection with non-elastic fabrics,- by the stitching of a separate tape to one face 5 of the fabric, there would be interference with the longitudinal stretch of the material. 'Even if the tape or strip used forthis purpose were itself capable of stretching longitudinally the difiiculty would not be completely solved since the stitching would still interfere with the stretch. Furthermore the stitching would have a tendency to tear the fabric or permanently distort some of the threads.
The invention may be practiced in connection with a garment employing either a woven or a knit two-way elastic fabric. It may be used to particular advantage, however, in a knit construction and it has accordingly been specifically illustrated in connection with a garment of this type.
Various objects and advantages of the invention in addition to those above pointed out will become apparent from the detailed description of an-illustrativeformof the invention which will now be given in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in which:
Figure 1 is aperspective view from the front of a garment embodying the features of the present invention.
Figure 2 is a sectional view on an enlarged scale along the line 2-2 of Figure 1, showing a detail of the construction, and
I Figure 3 is a diagrammatic view illustrating the manner in which the stay-receiving pockets are produced.
Referring now to the drawing, there is illus trated a girdle adapted to extend from a point at or above the waistline to a point well below the buttocks. It comprises a front section l0 and a rear section II joined at the two sides by longitudinal seams I2 and I3, thus forming a continuous body-encircling member. The front section may conveniently be formed with a number of different styles of knitting. For example, the top portion M of this section may be produced withone style of stitch adapted to allow a somewhat easier and greater stretch than a section l5,below a dividing line I6. The portion l5 may conveniently be formed with a type of stitch adapted to exert a relatively firm transverse tension so as to produce a firm confining action over the abdomen of the wearer. If desired, the por tion l5 may be continued with the same type of stitch to a point near the bottom of the garment. It is preferred, however, to modify'the stitch somewhat at a point about half way down, as indicated by the line H in Figure 1. This, then. provides for a still different type of stitch in a portion iii of the garment substantially in line with the hips. The difference between the portions l5 and I8 may, for example, comprise the inclusion of laid-in elastic threads in the portion l5 extending across the garment and the omission of these laid-in threads in'the portion i8. Other schemes might be substituted for this to produce the desired effect. The bottom of the garment below the line H) may be formed by a stilldifierent type of stitch. This bottom portion 20 is pref-- erably of such construction that it will stretch relatively easily so as not to create any uncomfortable and undue confinement at the bottom of the garment which'surrounds the thighs. The stitch employed in this portion may conveniently be substantially the same as that employed inv the portion l4 without, however, including transversely extending laid-in elastic threads, preferably provided in the section I 4.
The front section ID of the garment is preferably also divided into different types of .knitting in different longitudinal zones. For example, the longitudinally extending areas 2| indicated in Figure 1 may be formed with a somewhat different type of stitch from the areas to either side than the needles 23 adapted to produce the areas 2| and difierent cams may be provided for controlling the needles 22 and 23, respectively. Furthermore; the machine should be provided with suitable controls, well known in the knitting art, for varying the style or nature of the stitch in all or a part of the zones as the knitting of the fabric progresses.
Now, as the line I! is reached in the course of knitting the fabric from the lower end as shown, the groups of needles 23, which have been knitting the longitudinal areas 2|, may be so controlled that upon movement of the thread carriage in one direction across the machine, only those needles on one side of the line of the fabric will be operated to formloops while on the return movement of the thread carriage, the needles 23 on the opposite side of the line of the fabric will be operated to form loops. 0n the other hand, the needles 22 may be so controlled that they will continue at this time to operate on both sides of the line of the fabric during movement of the thread carriage in both directions. This will result in the formation of a single, thick fabric by means of the needles 22 and a divided ordouble fabric of two thin layers by means of the needles 23.
The operation is illustrated diagrammatically in Figure 3 in which a indicates the course of thread laid down in the movement of the carriage toward the right, 1) indicates the thread laid down upon the return movement of the carriage toward the left while a and b indicate corresponding threads laid down-during the preceding reciprocation of the carriage. Thus, as the thread carriage moves toward the right, as indicated by the arrows X, the thread a will beengaged by all of the needles 22 to form loops on both sides of the fabric, interengaged with the loops previously formed by the course of thread 11'. However, as the area produced by the needles 23 is reached, only those needles on one side of the fabric will produce loops interengaged with the loops previously formed by the course of thread a, and hence a relatively thin fabric will be produced over this area. Upon then reaching the zone of action of the next group of .needles 22, the loops will be formed on both sides of the fabric by interengagement with the preceding course b, and so on across the material. Upon the return movement of the thread carriage in the direction of the arrow Y, the needles 22 will again operate to form loops on both sides of the fabric from the course of thread b interengaged with the loops previously formed by the thread a while when the zone of the needles 23 is reached only those on the opposite face of the fabric from those originally operating will work to produce a second thin section of fabric across This will be done by interengagement of the new course of thread b with the course b laid down .on the preceding return movement of the thread carriage. As the knitting progresses it will be apparent that a longi- In the knitting of the tudinally extending welt is formed of any desired width, depending upon the number and spacing of the needles 23 in each group.
Any number of welts may be produced, two being illustrated in the drawing. These welts provide longitudinally extending pockets which are integral with the material and adapted to receive stays 24 or other stiifening elements, or the like. These stays may be conveniently inserted after the full length of the pockets has been completed, for example up to the line 25 in Figure 1. After the stays have been inserted, the needles 23 on the opposite sides of the fabric may again becontrolled in such a way that these needles will operate to form loops on both sides of the fabric during the passage of the thread carriage in both directions. In this way the upper ends of the pockets formed by the welts will be closed and the garment may be extended beyond the stays for any desired distance. Preferably only a small section of the garment will be left above the ,ends of the stays, if the garment is of the girdle type,inasmuoh as the primary purpose of the stays is to lend support and stiflness to the top portion of the garment and to the region overlying the abdomen. Obviously, the welts or pockets might be formed at any other point in the material and the stays inserted wherever it is desired to lend support and stiffness to the garment. If a combination garment including a brassiere portion is produced the stays will ordinarily be arranged some distance down from the upper edge of the garment.
The back section II of the garment may be formed in substantially the same way as the front section, if desired, or an entirely different sort of fabric may be employed. Preferably it will at least have top and bottom portions, corresponding to the portions [4 and 2|] of the front section, of a somewhat difierent style of knit from the intermediate portion.
In the knitting of the sections l0 and II, they may, if desired, be formed as individual lengths of fabric removed from the machine upon the completion of each section. On the other hand, if desired the knitting may be conducted more or less continuously so that a series of sections will be produced in one continuous knitting operation and these sections then cut apart upon the completion of a desired number. it will be desirable to provide a binding strip or suitable stitching 26 along the free edge of the material to prevent unravelling of the knit loops.
As will be understood, the fabric as it is knit will be stretched transversely to two or more times its normal contracted width and it will also be placed under a longitudinal tension. This enables the productionof a fabric which is of reasonably close texture when stretched and is exceptionally close when drawn together under the contractive force of the elastic. Ordinarily it will be preferable to utilize both elastic and non-elastic threads in the knitting of the fabric. For example, the elastic and non-elastic threads may be alternately introduced or several courses of one type of thread may be alternated with one course of the other type, as desired, depending upon the contractive force to be produced in the completed garment.
While one illustrative form of garment embodying the invention has been disclosed in considerable detail, it will be understood that numerous changes may be made without departing from the general spirit and scope of theinvention. For
example, as previously stated, the fabric with In any event, Y
' integral stay-receiving pockets may be woven inlieu of the front. Certain portions of the garment may be formed of completely non-elastic material or of one-way elastic material, if .de-'
sired. The two-way elastic section embodying the stays may be knit or woven with the same stitch throughout if desired, except for the formation of the welts wherever a stay is to be inserted. Other modifications will suggest themselves to persons skilled in the art.
